Hi Jack,
highly appreciate providing a NON-RNAV Route! As a US Newby, could you please explain how to file this route, as GSH is not on the OHARE 5 departure?
Bassy regards,
Benjamin

There is no transition on the ORD5 departure. The chart says "All aircraft EXPECT RADAR vectors to first enroute NAVID/fix" so just file GSH and expect vectors to GSH

Thanks Odinn,
you made my day – I was looking for the mistake I made... but I did not ,-) I do read the charts!
Let me tell about my flight during the event:
The departure route was stated on the event briefing for NON RNAV, so I was confused after being cancelled for this when calling clearance! I filed it exactly like in the event briefing for my NON RNAV 732... After cancellation no further help from the controller... He just told me to read the charts.
So I made up an alternative for myself, filed GIPPER (GIJ) as departure, updated flightplan, was cleared, and: Should taxi to 09L. Holding short of entry A8! Another big question mark on my forehead ,-) https://skyvector.com/files/tpp/1904/pdf/00166AD.PDF (https://skyvector.com/files/tpp/1904/pdf/00166AD.PDF)
Well, after checking again with the controller I got 09R - and after this some other planes got 09R too (already being cleared to 09L, LOL).
Enroute I did not get a descent by the controller, so I requested myself, which lead into a big vectoring (732 verrrry slippy, but no prob, enough fuel) and a nice landing.
I can not remember if after landing I was handled via TWR or GND, but when being asked where to go: I stated "U.S. CUSTOMS IMIGRATION" and got the reply "I do no know where this is!"
How can it be a foreign pilot (just a few hours in US, but may overseas) seems to know departure charts, US airspaces and ground charts better than the local controllers during a VATUSA event?
Bassy regards
